Set the following Neighbor Selection values within the Advanced Parameters field:
Set the following Channel Load Balancing values within the Advanced Parameters field:
Minimum signal strength for
common clients When Using probes from common clients is selected as a neighbor selection strategy, use the
spinner control to set a value from 0 -100% as signal strength criteria for a client to be regarded
as a common client in the neighbor selection process.
Minimum number of clients
seen When Using probes from common clients is selected as a neighbor selection strategy, use the
spinner control to set the number of clients (from 0 -256) that must be shared by at least 2
access points to be regarded as neighbors in the neighbor selection process. The default value
is 1.
Max confirmed neighbors Use the spinner control to set the maximum number of access point neighbors (from 0 - 16) of
the same model available for load balance distributions. The default setting is 10.
Minimum signal strength for
smart-rf neighbors When Using smart-rf neighbor detection is selected as a neighbor selection strategy, use the
spinner control to set a minimum signal strength value (from 0 - 100%) for a SMART RF
detected access point to be qualified as a neighbor.
Max. 2.4GHz Load Difference
Considered Equal Use the spinner control to set a value (from 0 - 100%) considered an adequate discrepancy (or
deviation) when comparing access point 2.4GHz radio load balances. The default setting is 1%.
Thus, using a default setting of 10% means 10% is considered inconsequential when
comparing access point radio load balances exclusively on the 2.4GHz radio band.
Min. Value to Trigger 2.4GHz
Channel Balancing Use the spinner control to define a threshold (from 1 - 100%) the access point uses (when
exceeded) to initiate channel load balancing in the 2.4GHz radio band. Set this value higher
when wishing to keep radio traffic within their current channel designations. The default is 5%.
Weightage given to Client
Count Use the spinner control to assign a weight (from 0 - 100%) the access point uses to prioritize
2.4GHz radio client count in the 2.4GHz radio load calculation. Assign this value higher this
2.4GHz radio is intended to support numerous clients and their throughput is secondary to
maintaining association. The default setting is 90%.
Weightage given to
Throughput Use the spinner control to assign a weight (from 0 - 100%) the access point uses to prioritize
2.4 radio throughput in the access point load calculation. Assign this value higher if throughput
and radio performance are considered mission critical and more important than a high client
connection count. The default setting is 10%.
Max. 5GHz Load Difference
Considered Equal Use the spinner control to set a value (from 0 - 100) considered an adequate discrepancy (or
deviation) when comparing access point 5GHz radio load balances. The default setting is 1%.
Thus, using a default setting of 10% means 10% is considered inconsequential when
comparing access point radio load balances exclusively on the 5GHz radio band.
Min. Value to Trigger 5GHz
Channel Balancing Use the spinner control to define a threshold (from 1 - 100) the access point uses (when
exceeded) to initiate channel load balancing in the 5GHz radio band. Set this value higher when
wishing to keep radio traffic within their current channel designations. The default is 5%.
Weightage given to Client
Count Use the spinner control to assign a weight (from 0 - 100%) the access point uses to prioritize
5GHz radio client count in the 5GHz radio load calculation. Assign this value higher this 5GHz
radio is intended to support numerous clients and their throughput is secondary to maintaining
client association. The default setting is 90%.
Weightage given to
Throughput Use the spinner control to assign a weight (from 0 - 100%) the access point radio uses to
prioritize 5GHz radio throughput in the load calculation. Assign this value higher if throughput
and radio performance are considered mission critical and more important than a high client
connection count. The default setting is 10%.
